Ah, I did not know that tune2fs could do it, should have read your reply first. However, it seems this does not help with

Changing the inode size not supported for filesystems with the flex_bg feature enabled.

It apparently works on ext4 file systems without the flex_bg feature, and on ext2/ext3 images that do not support flex_bg in the first place, but apparently not on small ext4 images that were created with flex_bg or had it (irreversibly) added later.
